Where it came from
The Shire Scarecrow card was released in 2023 as part of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth, an expansion set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast under license from Middle-earth Enterprises, this set marked the inaugural entry in the Universes Beyond line, which integrates established intellectual properties into the game's mechanics. The card was designed to capture the pastoral, humble aesthetic of the Shire, reflecting the peaceful setting before the onset of the War of the Ring.
Illustrated by artist Lius Lasahido, the card features a traditional, weathered scarecrow standing amidst a field of crops, emphasizing the agrarian lifestyle of the hobbits. The artwork was crafted to evoke a sense of quiet normalcy within the high-fantasy narrative. Upon its release, the card was received as a functional common-rarity piece that serves as a thematic building block for players looking to construct decks centered around the Shire and its inhabitants.
